Chapter 769: Forced Questioning
Mrs. Gu turned cold when she heard this: "What's wrong with the Li family?" Is the Li family bad for our family? If it weren't for Master Li, would we have Wen to become an official? Don't forget that we are just a showman. ”
Mrs. Gu felt that Old Man Gu was really a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be fed, no matter how good Master Li was to him, he didn't kill him, but let him live with them to the Li family, and he dared to be dissatisfied with the Li family.
Hmph, mud legs are mud legs, the mud rice eaten, and the wild vegetable soup poured into it, raising an ungrateful lower riba people's cheapness.
Old Man Gu saw that Mrs. Gu was angry, and his face sank.
It's a pity that the old lady didn't coax him, but said cruel words: "Lord Li took care of our family for the sake of my father and mother's life-saving grace to him, otherwise do you think that a big official is full of food and supports us so much?" Gu Lao Liu, you have to have a conscience, your son became an official by relying on Li Dacai, you can't abandon the Li family as soon as your family is developed. ”
"Besides, if you want to find the Gu family's residence, you have to help Master Li, you don't want to ruin our family's future for the sake of your own face!"
After Mrs. Gu finished speaking, she changed her clothes and went to bed, and no longer bothered with Mr. Gu.
Old Man Gu could only sulk by himself, making his condition worse, but he would not die yet. Gu Youwen just made a teaching, if Old Man Gu died, Gu Youwen would have to worry about filial piety, but Mrs. Gu was reluctant.
This night, a group of people in the old Gu family were so excited that they didn't sleep for half the night, and everyone in each room was talking about how to spend the money after they got their livelihood.
The next day, Gu Youlu got up early and went to Master Li's courtyard, the father and son of the Qian family were afraid that Gu Youlu would monopolize Gu's livelihood, so they followed him like a bullshit plaster, and Gu Youlu couldn't get rid of them even if he was angry.
Master Li knew that they came early in the morning to know the Gu family's residence, so he brought Zhu Wu and Li Bai over, and asked Zhu Wu to secretly find the Gu family's residence with his subordinate nursing home; Li Bai took Gu Youlu and Qian Guangzong's father and son to Futailou and Qi's house, and asked the two families for Gu's address.
In the past three years, almost every month, people have come to the Qi family to ask where the Gu family lives? If he wanted to go to the Gu family in person to talk about the business of seasoning spices, Mr. Qi had long been surprised.
After seeing Li Bai and Gu Youlu, he said: "The Gu family likes to be quiet, and it is most annoying for others to go to their house to talk about making a living." ”
Gu Youlu hurriedly said: "Our family is not an outsider, we are also surnamed Gu, and we are of the same clan as this Gu family." ”
The corners of Mr. Qi's mouth twitched, you don't even know where the Gu family comes from, you dare to say that you are of the same clan and the same clan, in order to take away other people's livelihoods, you really don't even want to have a face.
Mr. Qi is a bully who is afraid of the weak, he can't do Lei Wuye, he can't do Gu Jinli, and he can't do a Gu Youlu, so he directly lowered his face and said: "Our family has signed a contract with the Gu family, if you dare to tell a third party about Gu's residence or seasoning and spices, my family will compensate Gu 100,000 taels of silver according to the contract, will you pay for this 100,000 taels of silver?" ”
"One hundred thousand taels of silver!" Qian Guangzong was furious: "This Gu family is too domineering, how can they make such a contract, 100,000 taels of silver, why don't their family rob it?" ”
Mr. Qi, hehe, this is called robbery in your family. I've just been here for three days, and I only heard about the Gu family yesterday, and I'm going to rob someone else's livelihood today, who do you think you are? Heavenly King Lao Tzu is not as domineering as you.
Mr. Qi said: "That's the thing, you want me to tell you where the Gu family lives, but you have to give me 200,000 taels of silver, and you don't have to talk about it if you don't have any money." ”
"200,000 taels, didn't you pay 100,000 taels just now? You raised the price on the spot, not afraid of ruining your Qi family's reputation? Qian Chengcai was a fool, seeing that the silver had doubled, he felt that Mr. Qi was deliberately embarrassing them, so he immediately didn't choose what to say, and Li Bai was too late to stop it.
With a bang, Mr. Qi slapped the table and said to the little servant Mo Song: "Send off!" ”
Mo Song was born in the nursing hospital, and when he heard this, he immediately grabbed Qian Chengcai and dragged him outside the door of the guest hall: "Don't send it if you go slowly." ”
"Eh, you reckless man, what do you want to do? Let go of me! Qian Chengcai struggled, but he slept four maids a day, and his body was hollowed out, where was Mo Song's opponent, and he was staggered out of the door.
Qian Guangzong hurriedly caught up and shouted: "Stop, stop, we live in the same prefect's mansion, do you know how much Lord Li loves my son?" Hurt him, Master Li will not let you go. ”
Qian Guangzong's father and son didn't know what they were wrong, but Li Bai knew, he didn't have time to pay attention to Qian Guangzong's father and son, and hurriedly apologized to Mr. Qi: "Mr. Qi, don't blame, Young Master Chengcai didn't mean it, he was just straightforward." ”
Mr. Qi sneered: "Do you scold my entire Qi family with a straight heart?" ”
Li Bai choked, and hurriedly said: "Sir, stop being angry, stop being angry." ”
Mr. Qi sat in the Taishi chair and said with a gloomy face: "Let's go, leaving you behind is to ruin the reputation of my Qi family." ”
Li Bai looked at Mr. Qi's face and knew that he couldn't please him this time, so he could only give up and pull Gu Youlu, who didn't want to leave.
Gu Youlu was not convinced, and wanted to argue with Mr. Qi, but was suppressed by Li Baisheng and dragged away.
As soon as the group of four people left the gate of Qi's house, Gu Youlu asked Li Bai: "Why don't you let me follow the theory surnamed Qi?" ”
With his eloquence, he will definitely be able to convince Mr. Qi.
Li Baidao: "The Qi family is a scholarly family, and what we care about most is reputation, if Young Master Chengcai says something like that, Mr. Qi will not take care of us anymore." His eldest brother has been an official in Beijing, and he has known many people in the capital for decades, and he has done quite well after his promotion, Shangfeng values Uncle Qi's loyalty very much, we can not offend the Qi family as much as possible. ”
Qian Chengcai was dragged out of the Qi family by Mo Song, his face was very ugly, and he shouted: "Uncle Qi is just a fifth-grade official, and Master Li is also a fifth-grade official, can you still be afraid that he will not succeed?" ”
"The Beijing officials are different from the officials who are released, although the grades are the same, but the Beijing officials are more valuable." After Li Bai finished speaking, he saw that Qian Chengcai was about to shout again, and immediately said: "There is also Futai Building, we can go to Futai Building and ask, this Hu Dongjia is a businessman, no one is an official, how do we want to force them to succeed." ”
Gu Youlu and the others were happy when they heard this, and immediately rushed towards Futai Building.
After arriving at Futai Building, he said directly to the shopkeeper: "What about your owner?" When he called out, he said that the people of the same prefect were looking for him. ”
The shopkeeper of Futai Building, who is also surnamed Hu, is a child of the Hu family, frowned when he heard this, and said: "The owner is celebrating the New Year in his hometown, not in Fucheng. ”
Gu Youlu and the others were choked when they heard it, it was really fucking uncomfortable today, Hu Dongjia was not there, and said: "It's okay if you're not there, it's okay to ask you." Don't you go every day to get roast duck and lo-mei? Then you must know where the Gu family lives, and tell us where the Gu family lives. ”
